  • WLAN APs operate in different frequency bands
  • the terminal must send a probe signal on different frequency channels to scan for all available APs in the case of the active scanning, or scan for different frequency channels in order to receive beacon signals from APs in the case of the passive scanning. This causes an increase in the time required for searching for an AP in order access a WLAN.

  • An service set identifier (SSID) is a sequence of characters that uniquely names a WLAN. If a predetermined SSID is assigned to an interworking WLAN in relation to interworking between the WLAN and the mobile communication network, the UE identifies the interworking WLAN by its SSID.
  • the interworking WLAN information is included in an unused SIB rather than in SIB 11 or SIB 12. Reception of the new SIB is limited to the UE capable of accessing the interworking WLANs within the RAN.

  • the UE transitions the WLAN module to a power save mode without turning it off between periodic scans. This is because the time required to completely activate the WLAN module in supplying power to it for the next scan is reduced when in a power save mode.
  • the power save mode disables the WLAN module without turning it off as is done in a typical sleep mode, but has a longer sleep period ranging from several seconds to tens of seconds.
  • the UE determines whether the interworking WLAN has been detected, If the UE has not acquired the interworking WLAN information by the SIB or CBS message, it acquires the information by accessing the detected WLAN and determines whether it can access the WLAN.

If an automatic handover has been set, the UE can notify the user of the automatic handover without notifying the user of the presence of the WLAN in step 418.
  • user-preset means e.g., bell sounds, vibrations, an icon on a display, etc.
  • the UE determines whether the automatic handover has been preset. If it has, the UE automatically performs a handover to the detected WLAN without user input and continues receiving the packet data service in step 426. If the automatic handover has not been preset, the UE determines whether the user has requested an access to the WLAN in step 422. If the user has not requested an access to the detected WLAN, the UE maintains the WLAN module in the sleep mode and continues to receive the packet data service via the UTRAN in step 424. On the other hand, upon request for the access, the UE performs a handover to the WLAN and continues the packet data service in step 426.
